Mechanics Liens For Material Suppliers
Material Suppliers have the most demanding mechanic’s lien requirements of all parties in the construction industry. Whenever a state requires preliminary notices or notices of intent, they exclude some parties, but almost always require these notices be sent by the material supplier.
These requirements are made more cumbersome because unlike trade contractors or general contractors who work on a small number of individual projects for a period of time, material suppliers constantly ship out materials to projects all across the country.As a result, to protect lien rights, material suppliers must constantly be sending notices.
Zlien helps material suppliers across the country comply with preliminary notice and mechanic’s lien requirements. We fit into your existing workflow, and take care of everything for you for a low per-project price.
Supplier Claim Challenges
Material Suppliers have special needs when protecting and enforcing mechanics lien or bond claims:
- Must juggle multiple state and project compliance requirements
- High volume of orders means more notices and compliance confusion
- High volume of purchase orders leaves suppliers more vulnerable to non-paying accounts, and so they need the mechanics lien remedy more than most.
